Visions of porcupine enemas come to mind...<br /><br />I'd compare your computer to your house. It contains all your stuff, is decorated and arrayed (or disarrayed) to your liking, and anyone caught snooping around should be assumed to be stealing or stalking.<br /><br />Now houses have guest rooms, just like computers have guest accounts. Perhaps it would make you more tolerant of the keyboard-clawing cloven hooves if you set your screen saver to force a login, and then enabled a guest account.<br /><br />Then again, I'm with you if want to suspend a razor sharp axe blade to permanently correct the handsy.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02300232055541422379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7311037477621350510.post-48696895482582040992009-11-06T04:09:23.634-05:002009-11-06T04:09:23.634-05:00It's not just your Pagan upbringing. It's ...It's not just your Pagan upbringing. It's common (albeit often not so common) decency and respect for another human being's thoughts and work. How does one respect oneself without respect for others? If you are using a laptop...lock it in a desk drawer. If you are using a desk model, lock the keyboard in a desk drawer along with locking the screen. (And I love the "word verification" I'm seeing below and will be asked to type -- twartian. Any guesses on a meaning? It's a great word.)peonynoreply@blogger.com
